Courses: Salads
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

8 oz 227gDried rice vermicelli
  = (or 1 pound fresh bun)
8   Romaine lettuce leaves - ribs removed,
  Julienned
2   Carrots - peeled, julienned
1/2   Cucumber - peeled, seeded,
  And thinly sliced into crescents
12   Mint leaves - julienned (large)
  Fish Dipping Sauce - {Nuoc Cham} - (see recipe)

Recipe Instructions

If using dried rice vermicelli, place it in a bowl and cover with lukewarm water. Let stand until pliable, about 20 minutes.

Bring a pot of hot water to a boil. Drain and divide the rice vermicelli into 4 equal portions. Place 1 portion at a time in a sieve and lower it into the boiling water. Untangle the noodles with chopsticks and boil until tender but firm, about 3 seconds. Remove, drain, and place in a large bowl. Repeat this step until you have 4 individual servings. If using fresh bun, there is no need to boil them.

Divide the noodles among 4 bowls. Scatter some lettuce, carrot, cucumber, and mint over each bowl. Drizzle with nuoc cham and toss well.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
